I use my humidity sensor to detect if someone is taking a shower. Then the header put the bathroom heater to 24º in 5 minutes timers as long as the humidity still over 75-80%. Once the humidity goes down the header stops asking for heat. Setting the desired temp make it perfectly useful for summer and winter as the bathroom is only heated if needed.

Smart plugs are also great for 3d printers. Some printers have big fans that run constantly even if the printer isn't working, so using octo print, you can set a timer through home assistant to take the estimated print time, add 30 minutes (for estimation error + cooldown) and set the plug to turn off at that time. It's great.
@PjotrStroganov

Wouldn't it be easier to let octoprint trigger a script after the print has actually finished resulting in the plug to switch off? There are plugins for that.

I got interested in home automation after seeing a video of a disabled girl using an eye gaze communucation device to talk to alexa and control lights, fans, etc. My daughter is quadriplegic and non verbal so of course I wanted to give her some control over her environment. I started putting smart plugs on everything, an echo in every room, etc. Last year she got her communication device and she still needs lots of practice, but she's learning to use it for alexa. Aside from that, I use the sound detection routine to trigger an alert to my phone if anything in her room beeps. I can hear some of her machines throughout the house, but not all, and then of course if I step outside for any reason, I can know exactly what's going on inside. This is also helpful if I have to leave her at home with someone else. I can of course watch her cameras, but it's good to know when her machines alarm so I can call and assist if they need help. Basically my whole house is set up to make caring for her easier.

The amount of cloud dependent automations is simply stunning. Why would anyone rely on so much internet bound stuff. I know internet malfunctions are rare, but they do happen once of twice a year for most people with standard non-business internet connections. My ISP has the bad habit of updating the firmware multiple times per year and they do fail sometimes requiring a router reboot. (not to mention, the amount of money you have to shell out to keep it functional, setting up a local HA on a raspberry pi would be paid for within a year or so)

Great vid. I also have a gate that's automated to open when I arrive. The problem is that if there is multiple people in the car that are also in the system, things go wrong in a hurry. Half open gate and garage doors because the system picks up everyone and tries to run each automation consecutively. I've increase my radius a bit but still very iffy who it picks up first. Can't use the ST geo as the minimum radius is so large that the gate will be closing before I arrive. I could create an automation to close the gate later but doesn't solve the multiple presence sensor issues. I've also set up a routine in alexa that if my presence is detected then the other are disabled but still may pick up one of the other first even after increasing my radius. Any thoughts would be much appreciated? Sorry for the War and Peace length comment.

I have my google set up for goodbye routine. Turns off all lights, turns off all smart plugs, turns off tvs, changes thermostat to away mode, opens garage door, turns all air purifiers on high, starts dishwasher if the door is latched, makes sure oven is off, and then says local traffic information and sets phones to do not disturb for driving mode. Then when we’re on the way home it’s set for “we’re coming home” so it sets the thermostat to home mode to start cooling/heating the house so it’s comfortable when we get home, asks for oven preheat temperature, preheats oven if necessary, and broadcasts message for the kitties saying we’re coming home. When we get home the lights automatically come on and the air purifiers go back to auto sense mode. Bedtime sets lights throughout the house to change to different colors/brightness, turns off tvs, turns off smart plugs, sets air purifiers to night mode (high with screens shut off), reminder if any laundry is still in either washer or dryer, says next days weather, asks for morning alarm time, changes thermostat to whatever we desire, then all the lights shut off after 20 minutes. We also have lots of other automations that do different things depending on certain conditions. Have several nfc tags placed on side table by the couch to automate lights, surround sound, and fans. The tags are for different scenes like movie time, game time, cleaning house, bedtime, and nap time for my son. We haven’t gotten our security cameras or video doorbell set up fully. They claimed to work with google assistant but not sure how. Everything is set up properly but we don’t get notifications or anything. Might be because we don’t have a display for them to project to yet.

Harmoney for tv, reciever, sonos, xbox and playstation automation. Running updates with remote cloud commands, having light sensors to check daylight and nightlight to check if body sensors need to be active to see if lights need to be on. Having window openers that run when temperature outside match inside or just opening 30 min a day for fresh air. Camera tracking systems, Air quality control. All smart brand i use: voice google, xiaomi, harmoney remote, tuya, axa smart home, aqara. And i prob forgot about my temperature, humidity and others things i did.
